It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

In general, I agree with what you say, but. . .

. . . my feeling is that beyond a certain level of competence, we start talking about mere "differences", not "improvements". I believe this is true in the performing arts, and it also applies to audio equipment: beyond a certain price point, all we're talking about is differences, rather than improvements. In fact, this principle applies to all sorts of things. Do we really need PCM resolution beyond 24/96? My gut and my experience are telling me it's not likely.

Of course, on a very SUBJECTIVE level, we might prefer this or that "difference" and claim it represents a SUPERIORITY of the quality in question (performance, audio reproduction, etc.), but I've grown skeptical about such claims over the years.
